TreeDiaper TD36R

The mat acts as a reservoir that absorbs water from rain or irrigation and holds it within its polymer layers. As the surrounding soil dries out, the mat slowly releases that stored moisture back into the ground, ensuring a consistent supply without waterlogging the roots.

Yes, you can cover it with mulch. The design is intended to be discreet, so adding a layer of mulch on top helps it blend into your landscape while still allowing the mat to function properly.

This specific model is designed for an 18-inch rootball. If you have a significantly larger or smaller tree, you will need to choose a different size to ensure the mat provides adequate coverage for the root zone.

It does. By absorbing excess water during heavy rain or over-watering, the TreeDiaper prevents the soil from becoming saturated, which is a primary cause of root rot. It essentially balances the moisture levels in the soil.

Not at all. The mat features a two-piece circular design that wraps easily around the base of an existing tree or shrub, so you do not need to disturb the plant or its root system to install it.

The TreeDiaper is made from durable, recycled polymer materials designed for long-term use. It is reusable and built to withstand outdoor conditions, making it a sustainable, multi-season solution for plant hydration.
